A full kitchen gives access to the living room that leads to the bedroom, full bath and walk-in closet. The cottage is in need of a full and complete update.

Rebuilt in 2008, the garage could also potentially serve as a workshop or business for a contractor, mechanic, etc. The remaining well over half acre is a natural paradise.
